The Green, Green Grass of Home....

You may have been wondering how--and who--has been maintaining the Graycliff lawns.  As you know, there are several acres,and it's been a yeoman's job to keep them looking beautiful these months, what with the large equipment, digging, grading etc during the landscape restoration.   Then, there has been the rain all summer, which has meant mowing all through July and August, when the grass usually grows more slowly.

Despite these challenges,, the lawns have been looking particularly beautiful this year...much to the enjoyment of both ourselves and our many, many visitors.

So kudos to volunteer Earle Newman, who can be seen early in the mornings cutting, trimming and edging...and who is part of the Graycliff team that is maintaining our new pond as well.

Hats off to the indefatigable Earl Newman!
